A bit of excitment

Last night we were lazing round watching tv - after my lazy day of not doing my planned training - when a fire engine went past, it turned down the side of the house and then along the back. Seeing as that seemed odd I ran upstairs, looking out the window I saw flames so we went out. They were gone when we got out, a car had caught fire and according to the kids gathered round there had been fireworks in it. The firemen at this point were trying to get into the garage next to the car, this seemed to be taking a while.
